May Build Curling' Rink
A few ardent curlers _ are asking the
question whether or not there will be
curling in Wingham this winter.- The
curlers met some tune ago and made
an offer to rent the Stephen rink, but•
he decided he would not rent. It is
now possible that the 'curlers will .de-
cide on building a curling rink. ' No
arrangement made with the Wingham.,
Arena for ,parttime would work out
nearly so satisfactorily as if the curb
ers had °a rink of their own. Prob-
ably a curling rink erected near the
Arena would serve thecurlers to bet-
ter advantage 'in ease of holding a'
bonspiel in Winghant they could no
doubt rent the Arena ice for a day.
Let's 'get the ball rolling now before
it is too late to be of any service this
year.:
The newly elected officers of the
Curling Club are! -Pres., Don. Rae,
Secretary -Treasurer, E. J. Nash, Exe-
cutive Committee, Messrs, J, A. Cur-
rie, A. E. Porter and A. M. Crawford.
